Rain People

you'd think they were daggers, not drops
the way they hunch over and stagger
sprinting for cover- faces of pain
for heaven's sake, people
it's only rain!

Anthony, great little poem, it rained like that just an hour ago here in Ottawa, Canada, like daggers it came down as your poem so wonderfully describes the downpour but I was safe inside my cozy home _Constance
